    I'm a Ghost fan now, do I have to turn in my metal card?

    Only if you don't like metal. Being married to metal sucks. There's ton of killer music out there.

    SS power tubes…it was only a matter of time

    In guitar amps we typically only see two types of tubes, rectifiers and voltage amplifiers. We’ve had SS rectifier ‘plugs’ for many years. But vacuum tubes did other things too. I had a job where an old test device came in for refurb and it had a vacuum tube that was basically a relay. Another...

    Dude is pissed Tech can make a cell phone clip sound better than his fancy shit mic’ing. Did I say that out loud?

    Who's the biggest pickup genius

    You could make the argument that the biggest pickup genius is whoever made the most money from it. So that appears to be either Larry or Seymour and it’s probably Larry since he had a head start. I still hate the double cream patent tho and have mostly avoided for that reason. EDIT: on second...

    SS power tubes…it was only a matter of time

    For the record I’ve had a Dickerson Lap Steel amp from the 1940s for many years now and it has metal envelope tubes. They made metal tubes for years before they ever made glass tubes. I’m very aware of metal envelope tubes. These aren’t that. Tone is in the teal mother of toilet seat finish.

    SS power tubes…it was only a matter of time

    Yeah and some higher gain amps actually like a clean, wide bandwidth power section. I wonder what they do with the heater voltage? Do they even use it?

    Or just cut up a cardboard box. Or live dangerously and do nothing.

    Hang 'Em High - Eddie Van Halen - Isolated Guitar

    I can’t even play that riff with an open A, I have to keep the picking consistent by string skipping on both the A and the B bass notes. Switching back n forth is no bueno for me. There is still the C-chord in the break (pre-chorus?) that’s not string skipping but other than that I have to keep...

    Hang 'Em High - Eddie Van Halen - Isolated Guitar

    Ben Eller did a lesson on this one and when slowed down he found Eddie was playing that sick riff with swing. I think that swing was just burned into his playing. That riff is like a fuckin workout.

    A Tribute to Rick Derringer (1947-2025)

    Playing Rock n Roll Hoochie Coo was right of passage material when I was learning to play. One of the first songs I learned. Got to see him open for…somebody. It’s all a blur anymore. RIP.

    And Another 5-Stage "Bay Area Thrash" Langner Mod

    Fair but the 2204 has a voltage divider with treble peaker. The mixing circuit acts as a voltage divider for each channel. In each case, including yours it's just a voltage divider into that grid. The cap is different but it's just a voltage divider in all 3 cases.

    It still looks like GS/CF pair with stock values, 1k on the cathode of V3a instead of 820ohm but they varied that. I was also a little surprised the .68uF cap was still there with 5 stages.

    And Another 5-Stage "Bay Area Thrash" Langner Mod

    Just curious but you have a different divider/cap at the input to the old V2/now V3. In the stock setup (470k and 470k//470pF) that area and that grid wire in particular is 'hot', i.e. susceptible to noise just by putting your hand nearby. But in your setup there is a cap to ground. Does that...
